even not knowing what we know now. you could tell tracey gold was going through something as she got super skinny. the jokes were obvious a contributing factor. mike would call her fat and a pig throughout the series and tracey was by no means overweight. that had to mess with her mentally.

I think Tracy had a eating disorder

[@donaldwilson2620]

She actually admitted that she was dealing with anorexia at the time. I'm sure Kirt Cameron felt bad because his character often made fun of her in the earlier seasons.

[@africanqueen2200]

Yeah the jokes ended with her having an eating disorder she wrote a book "Room To Grow" about what she was going through.

I remember that Tracy Gold did a TV movie about a girl struggling with anorexia when she was struggling with it in real life.

[@GinLeigh]

Yes! It was called For the love of Nancy, I remember my health teacher in high school who used to tape lifetime movies for us to watch so he could go to the fieldhouse (he was a coach and also assistant principal) showed us this one. it was heartbreaking. I remember some behind the scenes commentary by Tracey where she talked about giving a lot of input into her behavior with body checking and her mental state then that they used in the film & how she felt it was important to do the film if it meant others could possibly be helped and that is was somewhat healing to confront her struggles head on by doing this film.

I feel bad for Toby and Leo. And likely all the young kids on the show. Steven Marshall had his way no doubt. 😢

It got better when Urkle and Tony Danza was put in to replace Kirk Cameron.

[@DCBatman76]

Did I do that?

[@JCStorm76]

Never happened

[@jnavillus]

Why even say the words in the VO if you're just going to cut them out?

[@JeremyAustin-hw1qy]

I've never seen this show but from what I know kirk was a pain and still is

[@JCStorm76]

Not true

[@JeremyAustin-hw1qy]

@@JCStorm76 are you sure how do you know that because according to the cast and everyone else behind the scenes say that kirk would always push his religion onto them and even got his on screen wife fired because she posed for playboy and replaced her with his actual wife

[@ninademci1500]

Juicy Pop, I’m sorry to say this will be long. Kirk became a Born Again Christian and in an article I read, his sister Candace said religion was rarely discussed, if at all, in their house as kids. The late Mr. Alan Thicke, told him that [I’m paraphrasing all of this and will use ** to denote it’s a paraphrase.] *since his (Kirk’s) convictions are so strong he can channel his creativity to a Christian network. The producers were fed up with it. The producer(s) is (are) the show runner(s). On occasion, an actor or actress is a show runner.*

If you know anything aboit Tracey, you'll know that it WASN'T the "fat jokes" that led to her near death battle with anorexia. She previously battled with the disease when she 12 years old (that's not to say the jokes didnt help the situation, but they were not the sole cause)

[@swolfe9668]

That's what happens when Tracey CHOSE to stave herself to get attention

[@1Cheytown]

@@swolfe9668 question though...have you ever suffered from an eating disorder? With anorexia...not eating is merely a SYMPTOM

[@swolfe9668]

@@1Cheytown there's no such thing as eating disorders, people CHOOSE to starve themselves to get attention
